Woolley Bully: Johnson Co TX Commissioner Larry Woolley is shocked people actually oppose the registry

Well, Commissioner Woolley, there is opposition to residency restriction laws because they DO NOT WORK. That should be simple enough to understand.

Opposition to granting counties the authority to make such rules comes from property owners who benefit by renting homes to such offenders, commissioners said.

“We’ve pushed for it before and it fell on deaf ears outside of our local representatives,” Commissioner Larry Woolley said. “But we have to keep pushing because counties have to have the right to put these rules in place just like cities do. It blows my mind that we don’t because it’s only right. Unfortunately, the state’s not a big fan of giving local control to counties or cities right now so this probably isn’t the best time to be pushing for it, but we have to keep pushing on all the same.”

Woolley said it also blows his mind that some actually oppose such legislation.

“But, when I said that before, I received phone calls and emails in opposition, and not from Johnson County people,” Woolley said.
